While in st. Paul the president saw
from Dakota only a squad of politicians,
who poured in from the northern plans
under the mistaken impression that
their presence would aolase the head OF
the government and that their absence
would be conspicuous. This is the ple-
bian product of the atmosphere in
which the president lives when at home
and the Dakota contingent failed to
make even ripple mark upon the sands
of his existence. At Sioux City the
president came in contact with gener-
ous display of gigantic Dakota corn,
sent to the exposition from Clay and
Union counties. The exhibit attracted
his attention. The corn was the peer
of the best in the most favored corn
regions of the globe, 1t was corn from
the Missouri river counties OF Dakota
and that tells the story OF its excellence.
The president said: "But, was this corn
actually raised in Dakota2" An answer
in the affirmative moved him to remark
that "Dakots must be rich country
Now at st. Paul, when he looked over
the northern squad, he did not say, ''but,
we're these politicians raisedi in Dakote?
Not much. He knew them and knew
where they came from and an ear OF
corn was greater in his estimation than
all OF these.

Paragraphs OF this nature are the re-
